I have installed Ubuntu 10.10 and trying to connect with my ADSL Wireless broadband internet modem using Linksys WUSB600N receiver.

The good news is the OS is able to detect my wifi network and I am able to hook to network over WPA authentication with basic settings. But the network goes off abruptly and never connects again until I reboot the machine.

I have Windows 7 as dual boot on my machine. The same adapter works perfectly with Windows 7 but not in Ubuntu. Is there anything in need to tweak to make things working or do I need to try any other better network manager on Ubuntu?

What does the NetworkManager applet on the panel display when the problem happens? What happens when you try to reconnect?

Post the result of cat /var/log/daemon.log |grep NetworkManager will do much favor to solve the problem.

Depending on the debugging information, this symptom could be (and is likely) a wireless driver issue. Please use ubuntu-bug linux to file a bug against the kernel so that we can collect the relevant debugging information.

this must be okay....my idea was, you are setting the connection with setting in this file and this cause the problem. What is about the restart of the network? Works for you? Or still should restart the machine?
